The Midfield Master

(Welcome to join the Midfield Master book friend exchange group: 532028645)

What Martins said is undoubtedly his approval that Xia Ze can leave. Although he is helpless, he also understands that Maritimo will never be able to keep Xia Ze, a South China tiger (Master of Midfielder Chapter 95).

After a pause, Martins seemed to think of something, and asked Xia Ze with some doubts: "But why did you reject Chelsea and Porto?"

Xia Ze smiled slightly when he heard the words, and said: "Porto is not sure that they can give me enough opportunities to play. I think they may just regard me as a money-making machine. As for Chelsea, I am not confident that I can play in the Premier League championship team. So I'm still waiting for the other teams, hope Mr Martins you can understand."

"If no other team offers, how would you choose?" Martins had his last hope.

"I will stay in the team." Xia Ze said firmly.

After hearing this, Martins breathed a sigh of relief.

A day later, in the office of Maritimo Chairman Felipe, a bald middle-aged man wearing glasses sat at his desk, smiling and talking to Felipe.

"Daniel, didn't I say, if there is no 8 million euros, don't you want to touch my players?" Felipe said coldly.

"Mr. Felipe, I'm here to tell you that we are willing to pay 8 million euros to buy out Xia Ze's contract." The bald man named Daniel said with a smile, very confident.

"What?" Felipe's face became even colder. He stared at Daniel in front of him for a while, then leaned back in his chair dejectedly, and said weakly: "Forget it, I can't keep him , one family and two families, after all, you can’t hide from the third family, so go and discuss the contract with Joao.”

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Felipe, I'm sure we will meet again soon." The man stood up with a smile, said goodbye to Felipe politely, and left the office.

Immediately after leaving Felipe's office, the man made a phone call.

"Mauricio, I've settled the matter here, now I'm going to discuss the contract with Xia Ze's agent." The bald man said as he walked.

"Don't worry, I'll come over now and go with you."

"Will you come?"

"That's right, Chelsea was rejected by that kid a few days ago,

I think I have to promise him something before he will come. "

"Okay then, I'll wait for you."

Madeira Island has a Mediterranean climate, and the afternoon in August is not too hot, but there will be gusts of sea breeze, which makes people feel very comfortable.

At the bar where Maritimo fans gather, the bearded man is sitting at the door, enjoying the summer sun while blowing the sea breeze, so comfortable.

But at this time, his face was frowning, because his sister Monica had already learned from Xia Ze that he wanted to leave, which ruined his good mood.

"Big beard, why are you frowning?" The young bartender came out with two glasses of beer. Today's business in the bar is not very good, and he is happy to relax.

"Zhang Wei has transferred, and Xia Ze seems to intend to leave. If the two core players in the midfield are not here, what will happen next season?"

The bearded man sighed, took the beer from the bartender, took a sip, and frowned even tighter, as if today's beer was bitterer than before.

"That's not necessarily the case. Didn't Xia Ze kiss the team emblem when facing Molde? That proves that he loves this club very much."

The young bartender said disapprovingly: "It is also said that both Porto and Chelsea plan to pay a break-up fee, but Xia Ze refused to join. He still wants to stay in the team."

"I hope so." The bearded man was still frowning, drinking beer in a muffled voice.

"Look, those two people are very familiar." The bartender pointed across the road and said in surprise.

The bearded man looked in the direction the bartender pointed, and saw two middle-aged men in neat suits walking on the street in a hurry, as if they were in a hurry.

"Isn't that Pochettino?" The bearded man asked suspiciously, "What is he doing here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the two people on the opposite side disappeared around the corner of the street.

In a restaurant across the street from the bartender, four men were sitting opposite each other. On one side were Xia Ze and Tenonio, and on the other side were the two middle-aged men that the bearded man saw just now.

"Xia Ze, these two are the chairman of Tottenham Hotspur Club Daniel Levy and the head coach Mauricio Pochettino." Tenonio introduced him beside Xia Ze.

In fact, no introduction is needed, Xia Ze already knows who these two are. Pochettino often appears in TV broadcasts. If Xia Ze still can't recognize him, then he doesn't have to mix in professional football.

Although Levi seldom shows his face in front of the media, his iconic bald head and Pochettino appeared in front of him at this time. Apart from the Tottenham chairman who is in charge of the team's transfer, who else is there?

Xia Ze smiled politely at the two and greeted them.

"We offered 8 million euros to Maritimo, and they agreed to your transfer. Today I'm here to talk to you about the contract." Levi said first, still with a smile on his face.

"You already have Paulinho, Eriksen, Dembele, Sigursen and Sandro in your team, so why do you need me?" Xia Ze didn't ask in the first sentence Instead of salary, ask the more important question: Can he play at Tottenham?

"I am very optimistic about you, and our team is also planning to change blood in the midfield this year. Sigursen and Sandro will transfer in the near future. I have watched a lot of your games, and I believe your creativity can help us get Improve." Pochettino answered Xia Ze's questions with a smile.

"I'm not afraid of competition, but I have to make sure I can play in the new team." Xia Ze continued to ask.

"Don't worry, you are in my future plan, I can guarantee that you can play at least 30 games."

Pochettino said patiently: "We unfortunately missed the Champions League last season, but I believe we can do it this season. Daniel is as confident as I am."

Xia Ze didn't speak when he heard the words, but thought carefully for a while. Tottenham's midfield competition is indeed fierce, but isn't joining the Premier League team exactly what I promised Wang Xiaolin to do?

What's more, Tottenham is also an ambitious club, and it won't be so big that it can't even play the ball. Don't you just wait for this opportunity?

"Okay, that's all for my questions. Next, Joao will talk to you." Xia Ze curled his lips, leaned on the sofa, and stopped talking.

His move is equivalent to accepting Tottenham's invitation. As long as the issue of contract treatment is resolved, the transfer can be reached.

Tenonio and Levi then discussed Xia Ze's treatment. After a lot of talking, the two parties finally reached an agreement on the contract:

The contract period is 5 years, with a weekly salary of 30,000 pounds, an appearance fee of 2,000 pounds, a goal bonus of 1,000 pounds, a signing fee of 300,000 pounds, and a termination fee of 40 million pounds.

As long as the medical examination passes, Xia Ze can transfer to Tottenham.
